Sonnet On A Star - Poem by Tamara Beryl Latham

If I could write a sonnet on a star Then bottle it and toss it to the sea Would it travel to the corners of the Earth, And echo there the love I hold for thee? If I could write a sonnet on the moon Then bottle it and toss it to the winds Would it find your heart So you may briefly know, Where your love ends Is where my love begins? If I could write a sonnet on the sun Then bottle it and toss it throughout time Would someone from a distant galaxy Find no greater love Than that was mine Yet, I cannot write a sonnet on a star, Nor moon, nor even on the blazing sun, Nor bottle words to send them Where you are Nor coerce our separate hearts To beat as one And so my darling You will never hear The humble words of love I wrote for thee They remain encrypted, tightly sealed And yet they travel on eternally

I read your poem about a sonnet, it brought tears to my eyes. Tammy, you have no idea how often I think of you, the fun we had together in rhode island. I so wish we could chat occasionaly on email.

tammy, I read your poem, a sonnet, it brought tears to my eyes, You have no idea how often I think of you. I so wonder how things would have been for us had we got married. I’m so sorry to hear of the passing of your sister. I wish we could chat on email once in a while. jerry(Report)Reply
